Back To School Drive

City of Sanford Participates as a Seminole County Public Schools (SCPS)

“Back to School” Supplies Drop Off Site

We invite you to join the City of Sanford employees in putting school supplies into the hands of kids who need them most. 47% of SCPS students are eligible for the free and reduced meal program. Sometimes these students don’t have the necessary school supplies to be successful in the class room.

You can help by dropping off basic school supplies in the boxes located in various areas around City Hall at 300 N. Park Avenue in Sanford. Please drop off your school supplies Monday-Thursday 7:30am-5:30 pm no later than August 4.

Drop off locations boxes can be found in the Utility Department and at the Parks and Grounds Operations Division.
